Holding

The Claimant was employed as a security guard, not a manager. The Claimant absconded duty and was not unfairly dismissed.

Facts

The Claimant alleged he was employed as a general manager, but witnesses testified he was employed as a security guard. The Claimant was terminated after a theft incident.

Issues

  1. Whether the Claimant was employed as a guard or Manager
  2. Whether the Claimant was unfairly terminated or absconded duty
  3. Whether the Claimant is entitled to the prayers sought

Reasoning

The duties described by the Claimant and the Respondent's witness do not support the Claimant's claim of being a manager. The Claimant absconded duty after being suspended for theft.

Outcome

Appeal dismissed
